Few people in the town can tell exactly how the name "Nameless Alley" came from.

Some people say that it is because the ancestors really couldn't think of a good name when they chose the name, so they simply named it "nameless"; Some people also say that it is because the gate of the North Lingguan, which belongs to the Daomen, is opened in this alley, so it is called such a name.

Anyway, people who haven't studied don't think about it, and those who have studied don't know who to ask for this answer after a long time.

Every time there is a teacher in the township school, there will be people who ask for advice on this question, each with their own intentions, but the result is always the same, those teachers often study for a long time, and the final answer is to say their own truth, inconsistent.

The most different statement is given by Mr. Cui, who is now recognized as the most learned in the town, when he was asked about this, he only thought about it for a while, and then said with a smile, "It's all right, it's not right, right or not, it depends on who is asking." ”

And then...... There's no then, and just a sentence that looks a little sloppy is considered to send people away.

Some people say that Mr. Cui is cheating, and some people say that Mr. Cui learned Buddhism to make a move, but no matter whether others are full of dissatisfaction, anyway, when the scholar hears someone talking about it, he just laughs and laughs, and never excuses himself.

……

At this moment, in the nameless alley of this small town where the origin of the name is different, in front of the Beilingguan Gate, which happens to be opposite the location of the township school located in the northeast of the town, the bright girl with a red cloak has a long sword in her hand that is instantly unsheathed, holding the sword in one hand, and the blade of the sword is pointed directly at the richly dressed young man opposite, the sword body is sharp, and the cold is pressing!

The girl seemed to have heard the people of the Li family in the small town say simply, and the rich and noble young man in front of her, whose eyes were not honest and not very clean, was the only son of the sect master of Shuixiu Lake, surnamed Ke, called Ke Yuzhen.

Also as a disciple of the Immortal Family, the girl has more or less heard of the reputation of that Shuixiu Lake, which is an Immortal sect whose mountain gate is opened in the southwesternmost Jinchai Continent of Jiuzhou in the world.

Shuixiu Lake has always been surnamed Ke, and no one with a foreign surname has ever been the master of a sect, and the position of the suzerain has always been inherited by the children of the Ke family in succession, father to son, son to grandson, thousands of generations, children and grandchildren.

The current head of Shuixiu Lake is named Ke Wanting, and his scope is not very famous among the nine continents in the world, but the Jinchai Continent in the southwest corner can also be regarded as a hegemon.

The reason why this sect master Ke is also relatively famous is that he has been famous for half his life, and the years he has been the master of a sect are not short, but to this day there is still only one lady, who does not take concubines or raise an outer room, and the husband and wife are very affectionate.

Therefore, there is a widely circulated limerick poem in Jinchai Continent that says: Jinchai Continent in the southwest of the world, the rivers and lakes are chaotic and there are hundreds and nine streams, and there are adults who practice without counting, and Shui Xiu is affectionate and affectionate.

And because the favored sect master's wife of Shuixiu Lake has only given birth to a son in the past many years since she entered the lintel of Ke's family, it is natural to imagine what kind of status this rich young man who is the young sect master of Shuixiu Lake and the next person in charge of Shuixiu Lake will be in Shuixiu Lake, who pays attention to the inheritance of one surname?

But even so, the girl drew her sword and unsheathed it without hesitation, squinting at the hippie smiling man on the opposite side as if looking at a dead man, "You said that if I hacked you to death here, would it be considered a violation of the rules of the saint?" ”

On the other side, the young man turned around with the old woman who was following him, and the young man was naturally protected by the old woman.

Ke Yuzhen had no fear of the girl's murderous threat, and smiled: "Why should the girl be like this? I just admired the girl's beauty, and I was quite in love, did I still break the law? ”

The girl frowned slightly, an eight-sided long sword in her hand flickered with cold light, she didn't seem to want to speak, but she still patiently gave a sentence: "So just by virtue of your so-called admiration, you can make casual remarks and tease others?" I have cultivated in my body, and I can draw my sword if my heart and ears are not in order, but what if I have nothing? Are you just going to rob someone? ”

Ke Yuzhen, the boy in brocade, really tilted his head and thought about it, and then said seriously: "It's not impossible if you can be as stunning and beautiful as a girl, and what's wrong with following me?" Although my Shuixiu Lake is not the top immortal family, it is not too bad, a girl who has nothing can follow me, although it is impossible for me to give such a woman the identity of a main room, but even if it is a concubine or a room, shouldn't it be her blessing? ”

For the first time, the girl heard someone talk about bullying men and women in front of her so fresh and refined, and she couldn't help but have even more coldness in her eyes, and said in a cold tone: "So if I can kill you now, it means that you are not good at what you do, and you don't care who is reasonable." ”

The young man on the other side smiled directly when he heard this, "Of course." ”

The girl with the long sword in her hand didn't do it directly, she looked at the two masters and servants opposite, the young man just poked his head out from behind the old woman who was already ready to do it, and then looked at the front and back movements and postures of the master and servant, it was more like ...... Be prepared!

She thought about it carefully, and then took back the ancient long sword that pointed directly at the opposite side and changed it to the sword in her hand, and then asked again: "Tell me your true purpose, although I think you are very unpleasant, but I don't want to fight some inexplicable calculations!" ”

Ke Yuzhen, who was hiding behind the old woman, first his eyes lit up slightly when he heard this, and then he had a headache, he looked at the girl opposite with a smile, and asked, "Can't I really be a disciple?" ”

The girl was a little irritable, "It's not that you can't, it's not that you can't." ”

"Okay." Ke Yuzhen twitched the corners of his mouth, thought for a while, and then spoke: "Girl, you should know where that knife is, right?" If the guess is correct, does the girl still want to get the knife? ”

"That's it?" The girl seemed to be suddenly, and a flash of realization flashed in her beautiful eyes.

There are very few people in the rivers and lakes who are really because of the so-called simple low-level greed, some things need a reason, and some things are enough to rely on a guess.

"Not enough?" Ke Yuzhen asked with a smile.

"That's enough." The girl nodded.

This time, she didn't hesitate any longer, the cold long sword on the eight sides of the sword body in her hand rose up against the wind, and a seemingly nonexistent sword qi crossed a long arc in the air, rising against the storm and slashing the two opposite!

The girl's shot was simply sharp, without any mud and water, and the moment the sword qi came out through the sword, a loud dragon groan resounded throughout the nameless alley!

At the same time, the calm, silent old woman on the opposite side stretched out one hand backwards and pushed the young man she was responsible for protecting out of the battlefield between the two of them at the moment when the girl made a move, and pinched her fingers with the other hand, and a talisman qi instantly formed, like a wall blocking the sword qi that was slashing!

The moment when the two energetic forces want to be exchanged, there is a sound of gold and iron!

Before the old woman could completely solve the sword qi, the girl with the sword in her hand raised her long sword and flew straight to stab, and the sharp tip of the sword pierced directly on the wall of the sword qi at the moment when the sword qi was almost exhausted.

The old woman's slightly drooping eyes were only slightly raised at this time, looking at the beautiful face on the other side, a gloomy color mixed with disgust and viciousness flashed in her eyes, and she opened her mouth to speak, which was harsh and ugly.

"Little girl, today's scene has broken the rules set by the saints here, if you really want to be reasonable, it can be regarded as my young master's provocation first, and you are the first, no one will take advantage! The old body advises you, if you can give up the knife and the young man, then we can stop there, otherwise don't blame the old body for not being merciful! ”

It sounds like a good word, but there are needles hidden in it!

The girl who stabbed forward with the sword, and the old woman who had formed a stalemate heard the words and glanced at the old woman with a gloomy face opposite, without fear, she gave a sentence in an expressionless tone: "This girl has a good life, she has never been threatened since she was a child!" ”

The implication is self-evident.

The old woman's face was gloomy, and she muttered a sentence of "I don't know how to lift", and at the same time, the free hand pinched the trick again behind her, and a qi machine full of gloomy aura instantly formed in her hand, she took a step forward, and the qi machine in her hand smashed straight towards the face of the little girl opposite!

Such a method can be described as not vicious!

The girl did not panic when she saw the situation, she leaned back and went down the bridge, the long sword in her hand slashed upward, leaving a white sword mark on the talisman in front of the old woman, her free left hand supported the ground with one hand, and with the movement of the lower waist, her feet left the ground, and her left foot kicked the elbow that the old woman stretched forward!

This kick is strong and heavy, and if the kick is real, the old woman will definitely have to break an arm!

Seeing this, the old woman pinched the arm that was holding up the Gang Qi to protect her body, clenched her fist and retreated, and then smashed her fist on the sole of the girl's kick.

The girl retreated with the help of this, and after a few somersaults, she distanced herself from the old woman.

As a result, three or four rounds of hand-to-hand parling between the two men were almost completed in a matter of moments, but it was clear that neither side was doing their best.

As for the result, it is that the old woman has a slight upper hand.

Ke Yuzhen, the rich and noble son, was standing outside the battle between the two at this time, he found a poplar tree planted under the root of the roadside wall in Nameless Lane, and then leaned on the trunk with one foot, and the other foot was casually placed on the foot of the ground, and a folding fan was gently shaken in his hand.

Seeing that the two of them had temporarily come to an end, he smiled and looked at the glamorous girl who was slightly twisting her toes on the ground, and said with a smile: "Girl, you have to be sincere when talking about business, so I might as well tell you that because of the Zhu family in Yanguan Town, my Shuixiu Lake has already provoked a batch of sword cultivators, so in fact, I don't want to offend another wave of sword cultivators because of today's incident." ”

As he spoke, Ke Yuzhen snapped the folding fan in his hand shut, and then he raised his hand and gently knocked his sideburns with the fan, and continued: "I can probably guess that you are from the Xihe Sword Sect, but I am not very sure which sword immortal in the Sword Sect you are learning from?" But just looking at the simple change of tricks between you and Mama Xin, I have to say that the girl has extremely high attainments and is blessed, presumably you have studied under the famous predecessors of your sect and are not low, otherwise you would not be able to fight with opponents whose realm is much higher than yourself at such a young age. ”

"So from these points, I don't really want to be the enemy of the girl."

Ke Yuzhen held the folding fan in his hand and clenched his fists with both hands, arched his hand towards the girl seriously, and said with a smile: "Therefore, you and I might as well have a discussion, as long as the girl gives up the idea of the knife, and at the same time promises not to interfere in the affairs of Yanguan Town, then she is willing to make peace with the girl, and can also apologize for Fang Cai's rude words, and then promise to give the girl a generous gift as an apology, and the conditions are as long as the girl mentions, how about it?" ”

The old woman stood not far away, and when she heard this, she glanced sideways at her son-in-law, she frowned and thought about it carefully, there was some disapproval in her eyes, but she didn't say anything.

The girl has been looking at the old woman opposite since she started just now, she quietly listened to Ke Yuzhen's words, looked away at the rich young man for the first time, and then turned her gaze back, and then when she spoke, her tone had a certain inexplicable meaning.

"So, is that what you really want to do? I don't care if you really don't know something or if you actually have a plan, since you say that you want to make peace, and the conditions are okay if I mention them, I ask you to leave Yanguan Town immediately, and you are not allowed to take any person or thing here, accept? ”

Ke Yuzhen, who had been smiling since the beginning, finally flashed a shadow on his face at this moment, he sneered, looked at the girl and said, "Does the girl have to be so strong?" ”

"Come but not go." The girl's face was expressionless.

Ke Yuzhen shook his head and didn't speak again.

Seeing that the deal had not been completed, the old woman naturally started to do so, folded her hands in front of her, pinched her fingers, looked at the little girl opposite and said, "Since you are so unreasonable, then don't blame the old man for not being emotional!" ”

Suddenly, a gust of gloomy wind swept through the nameless alley, and the temperature around the three of them began to slowly drop.

The girl squinted her eyes and sneered, "Crooked and heretical, you are not small, you can try!" ”

As the words fell, the long sword in her hand was erected, the blade was on top, the hilt was down, and the moment her hands were spread out, the vertical upward long sword began to spin in the air.

The girl's lips moved slightly, and she gently read out the three words "Sword Weapon Line"!

At this moment, the sky and the earth within the radius changed color, and the temperature that had originally dropped slightly because of the old woman suddenly rose, and being in it was like a warm sun!

The long sword hanging in front of the girl also turned into three at the same time as it rotated at extreme speed at this moment, and it was as brilliant as if it had met a clone!

At this moment, the old woman's face, which had always been a little gloomy, finally showed a shocked expression, as if the original wrinkles and mottled wrinkles had been smoothed out a lot, and she suddenly turned her head and shouted at the young man who was also shocked: "Childe stand back!" ”

At the same time, the old woman no longer dared to have any support, and her dry hands quickly staggered and pinched, and in order to quickly defend, the speed of her hands loomed!

At this moment when the tension between the two sides was tense, a slightly old figure in a Taoist robe suddenly appeared in front of the girl, and the person who came was holding a long bamboo pole in his hand.

As soon as the old Taoist Fu appeared, he stretched out his palm, which had been old and dry, and flicked his fingers lightly on the sword on the left of the three long swords that were floating in the air and spinning rapidly.

The girl's movements of her hands froze slightly, and then the three long swords merged into one, and she had to catch the hilt of the sword, hesitated for a moment, and then raised the sword in her hand, without further movement.

The old Taoist closed his eyes and "looked" at the girl, and said with a smile: "Xiaoyou's talent is really not general, but in Lao Dao's opinion, today's situation has not yet reached the point of sacrificing a killing move, why should the little girl be like this?" ”

The girl coldly glanced at the rich young man standing in the distance, whose face became a little embarrassed, and said in a light tone: "The sword is cultivated to make a sword, and it is only life and death." ”

The old Taoist elder smiled, didn't say anything, and slowly turned around to "look" at the two people opposite: "Before you came here, no one told you about the rules here?" ”

The old woman stood quietly in place, and returned to her previous appearance of lowering her eyebrows and lowering her eyes, but it was Ke Yuzhen, who hesitated for a moment after hearing the old Taoist's question, then stepped forward and hugged her fists and said: "The junior Shuixiu Lake Ke Yuzhen has seen the Taoist, and he really doesn't dare to hide it, he knows the rules before he comes." ”

The old Taoist was silent, but his face was no longer the kindness he had when he looked at the girl before, and he looked a little serious.

Ke Yuzhen was under tremendous pressure for a moment, and there was sweat in the corner of his forehead, and he twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "The junior is impulsive, and he also invites the senior Haihan." ”

This is the first time that this young sect master of Shuixiu Lake, who has been noble since he was a child and has never bowed his head since he came to the town, has surrendered to others.

The old Taoist sighed slightly, and said lightly: "I miss that you are young, and there are mistakes on both sides of today's conflict, so today's matter will be stopped for the time being, but ...... Not an example! ”

The old Taoist paused at this point, he looked up and looked around, and then followed: "Including everyone!" ”

The voice is brilliant!

All the people with cultivation within the town, whether local or foreigner, have thunder in their ears!

Ke Yuzhen saluted respectfully, didn't dare to say a word, turned around and quickly left the nameless alley with the old woman.

The old Taoist didn't care about him, turned to look at the little girl with a calm face, and said with a smile: "The old Taoist hasn't gone out for a long time, but he doesn't know that Mr. Gongsun has received a good seedling again." ”

The girl turned her wrist, and the long sword in her hand naturally returned to the sword sheath, she took a step back and clenched her fists: "The junior Li Yuyao of the Xihe Sword Sect, ranked thirteenth, has seen Lu Tianshi." ”

The old Taoist priest nodded with a smile and nodded, and said, "Ranked thirteenth, so it should still be a little boss?" ”

The girl just smiled when she heard this, but did not speak.

The old Taoist turned his head and "looked" at the girl again, and said with a smile: "Then again, you are really like your master, and the little boss is not bad!" ”

knew that the old-timers were joking, but the girl's always cold face was still a little strange, and her pretty face was slightly red.

The old Taoist smiled, "It's not bad, Mr. Gongsun once said when he accepted the Twelve Niang that if he accepted the apprentice, he had to accept the apprentice according to the girl, and only one would be closed for her." ”

Speaking of this, the old Taoist of Gujing Bubo said with a little joke, and he said with a smile: "After so many years, now it seems that Mr. Gongsun has accepted himself again, why is he a desperate woman who is not angry?" You know that they are doing it on purpose, not only at you, but also for the old way, so why should you do this? ”

The meaning of the old Taoist's words was like criticism, but the tone was full of appreciation, "It is very reluctant to use your master's master's mastery with your cultivation, why do you even want to forcibly do it at the cost of destroying your foundation?" If there is a real accident, your master will regret that she gave you the bottom of the box in advance because of your rare talent, and second, she must not personally lift the sword and tear down the roof of the old road? ”

The girl is not a foolish person, so she can naturally hear the seriousness contained in the old Taoist's words, so she respectfully bowed to the old man with his hands and fists, and then said: "The younger generation just thinks that walking the rivers and lakes can't always rely on the shadow of the teacher, nor can they rely on the elders everywhere, there are always places that can't be reached by manpower, and I'm afraid it's too late to rely on myself at that time." ”

The old Taoist priest nodded lightly when he heard this, "It's also an understanding girl." ”

At this point, the Taoist sage who sat in the town didn't say more, but changed the topic, he turned his head to "look" at the street corner where the pair of masters and servants had disappeared, and said slowly: "Some of these people who came here this time have more complicated thoughts, and the specific purpose should not be simple, you don't need to have a direct conflict with them for the time being, just wait and see." ”

The girl nodded thoughtfully.

The old Taoist knew that the girl had listened, so he smiled and waved his hand, "Then the old Taoist won't keep you, go and get busy." ”

The girl's face was a little hesitant.

The old Taoist looked at the fire and asked with a smile: "Is there anything else?" ”

"Senior, that young man at the east entrance of the town......"

"See?" The old Taoist chief was not surprised, "He has some stories that are unique to him, some foreigners think that he is also a foreigner and is not very interested, and some people ......"

The old Taoist priest hesitated for a moment when he said this, and did not finish his words, but said to the girl: "You can make friends with him, but don't have any thoughts about bringing him back to the sect, he has some other causes and effects, and the final destination here cannot be decided before the matter is over." ”

The girl nodded, saluted, and slowly left.

The old Taoist closed his eyes and slowly walked up the stone steps in front of the Beilingguan Gate with a bamboo pole, turned his head to "look" at the direction in which the girl left, and muttered to himself: "Heaven bears the burden, karma and retribution, the disciple is meddling in secular affairs today, and the ancestor is preaching, hoping that there will be no evil consequences in the future. ”

On the long street, the wind is roaring, and there is an echo in the dark.

……
